CoST HIN $2S.-Leslie Webb, the t.
yoar-old son of the barber of that name
in Platteville was up before Judge
Baldwin last Monday charged with
pointing pistol at Chas. Wierman. 1t
seems that young Webb had accom-
panied Albert Thompson to Rockville,
and while the latter was interviewing
the doctor at Rockville about the pur-
chase of mule, Wierman came there
after some medicine. Young Webb, it is
said, frightened the boy with pistol.
His fine and costs amounted to S23.
George Schramm was present at the
trial and seemed much interested in the
testimony. particularly in that part that
tended to show that the boy took ..only
ciderH at his place.

CHEAP BEEF.-The county committee
on Insane assembled here last Friday
and audited the bills to June l. The
principal object of the meeting of the
committee was to decide whether or not
to carry out the plan of buying cattle
and butchering the beef for the Asylum.
The cost, including interest on money.
cost of building slaughter house, buy
ing tools, ETC., was computed. Sealed
bids We're then received from the butch
ers here for furnishing the beef by the
half carcass. Joe Nathan's bid was 4ac,
and he received the contract from June
-, to Jan. l, 1888. That is cheaper
than the county can butcher, and leaves
avery narrow margin for the contractor.

HUNDREDS DEAD.
Havoc Caused by the Earthquake
in the Southwest.
The Victims of the Nanimo Mine
Disaster Counted Up.

GUAYMAs, Mexico, May THE earth
earthquake of the Sd started by a terri
bic volcanic eruption at Bahispe, de-
destroying MOnteZuma. 1t killed $50
persons and ignited the woods. There
were also twenty persons killed at
Oputo by the falling of the building.
Many people were injured at Granada
and GuSha, which towns were almost
completely destroyed.
NoGALEs, AriZ., May later ac-
counts received here tend to show that
the report of the volcano having
broken out in the Wheelstone mountains
IS true. A gentleman who arrived from
Sonora yesterday says there is strong
point about forty miles southeast of
Magdalena, and it is confidently stated
that one peak is throwing out
large volumes of smoke accompanied by
streams of lava. Smoke and fire can be
distinctly seen from several points al0 :
the line OF the Sonora railroad. As far
as can be aScertained the volcano is in
the Sierra AXul range. From the appear
ance of the country and the heavy
earthquakes that have occurred it is
believed that other volcanoes will break
forth in few days.
BENSON, a. T., May 7.-There were
shocks to-day, the heaviest one occurring
at 4:36 this evening lasting about ten
seconds.
Tucson, AT, May 7.-Another vio-
lent earthquake is reported in the San
Jose mountains, forty miles south
of Fort Huacfcua, in Sonora.
Gen. Forsyth has sent an explora-
ton party to Investigate. The party
has just returned from the Santa Cata-
lima mountains, and report the canons
full OF water. The water was brought
to tie surface by the earthquake. This
is great boon for this region as there
are thousands of acres of good farming
land at the base of these mountains
which only need water to make them
valuable. Another good effect of the
earthquake is the opening of two large
gold veins which were discovered in the
Santa Catalina mountains at point
where the whole side of the mountain
slid down. Several prospecting parties
left to-day to locate claims.

FRANCE ATTITUDE.
tits One of Peace, but Not at the
Price OF Honor.

HAvRE, May Prime Minister Go
blet opened the maritime exhibition to-
day, delivering the inaugural adj
dress. After commenting on the
progress of France under re-
publican form of government, he
concluded as follows: MAY this ex-
hibition prepare the way for that of
1889. The people, occupied with such
cares as these, cannot be suspected of
harboring aggressive projects, though it
will never forget to provide for its own
honor and dignity. If it addresses it.
self to other people it is to challenge
them TO a contest of worth or
cherish the hope that this appeal will be
understood. At a banquet given SUISSE
quently Goblet praised the sagacity
and patriotic unanimity of public opin-
ion which supported the government in
recent Incidents. France" Goblet
said, under the influence of liberty,
has lmbued herself with new tempera-
ment and calmneSS, presence of mind
and resolution have replaced that eX-
citability and somewhat unsteady Or
der with which she often has been re-
preached. Let us strengthen ourselves
IN these new manners. We may need
Intln. Inc tlme OF trlal perhaps has
not passed. If troubles come we shall not
have provoked them. While it is unnec-
essary to affirm that nation like ours in
full process of transformation earnestly
desires peace to develop itself, it is still
less necessary to affirm that we are re-
solved to sacrifice thereto neither our
rights nor our honor. France, uplifted
from her disasters, has taken confidence
in herself. Very far from menacing any
other nation, she is preppred to well
come with joy and reciprOcate with SYM
pathy, but she no less is ready to con-
front unjust aggression. This is the
only attitude conSOnant with the dignity
of great nation. 1t is because we know
that it is the unanimous sentiment of
the country, because we have felt the
soul of France vibrate that we can now
without reservation, without, l hope,
any new matter to engroSS our thoughts,
return to the consideration of home af-
fairs" lie concluded by referring to
the necessity of ending party dissensiOn
and regulating the expenses of the rev.
enues. To this end the increase of Ger
tain taxes will be necessary, as well as
the practice of economy.

bridge having been burned, leaving the
rails in place. The engine passed over,
but the jar threw the fireman out of the
cab. The tender went through into a
shallow arroyo, forming a barricade
against which the other cars ran with
terrific force. The mail car turned COM
pletely around, standing across the
track. The baggage and express cars
were thrown twenty feet from the track
to the right and turned over. The
two passenger cars were derailed, but
the two Pullman ears remained on the
track. A scene of frightfu consterna-
ton ensued,nO one believing the paSSen-
gers i'll the overturned car would escape
death. The fireman, Charles Smith, was
picked up unconscious, with leg
broken, spine injured and internal in

Among the injured passengers extracted
from the wrecked ears are: Mr.. Snyder,
of Walla Walla, w. r., terrible scalp
wound; Henry c. Hanson, cut and
bruised about the head; Ed Thornton,
confused head; A. Seeley, broken leg;
Len Beard, leg smashed: u. Edwards,

lady, spinal confusion; p. j. Green,

GOSCHEN DINED.

Quoted by His Constituents

AhS Siih mug WuHlD Ban
quoted by His Constituents.
LONDON, May THE electors of st.
Georges, Hanover square, gave ban
quet this evening in honor of Mr..
GOSchen, who represents that district in
parliament. The Marquis of Salisbury
presided. In his speech Lord Salisbury
said the government was receiving sun
port from all sides. 1t was Unionist
not Conservative ministry. The best
men of the Liberal and Conservative
parties now saw nothing before them
but the great subjects of imperial inter
est upon which they closely agreed.
He deplOred the threatened degeneracy
of parliament and wondered how
much longer the English people would
stand the waste of time and talent by
its representatives. How long, he
asked, was the discussion to go on over
the clauses of bill identical with the
one passed under GladStOne's admins
tration? Were men to educate their
sons to sit in parliament and listen week
after week to the grooming and common
places of Irish members? He believed
the English people would ere long put
short, sharp end to this scandal. Re-
ferring TO the Liberal platform cry of
generalization against Coercion" he con-
tended that this was fallacy: that the
Liberals ignored the fact that Ireland
was not one nation, but two, one
of which wished to coerce the other.
1t was the case of the rabbit
and boa-conStrictor, except that
the rabbit would make bitter
fight il left undefended. The govern
ment were maintaining the weak against
the strong, freedom against coercion.
They would stand by this policy. and he
was confident they would win. [Cheers.l
GoSche responding to the toast to his
health, boosted of the continuous growth
of the Unionist feeling. The doctrines
OF the Land league seemed to be work
ing into the hearts of the Radicals, max
ing it all the more necessary for their
opponents to rally i'll defense of true
law and order. He would not admit the
degeneracy of the commons. The present
debauch was temporary. The true men
in the house would be able to rescue it
from its apparent helplessness. [Cheers.l

AJAccIo, May 7.-Divers have sue

jewels aboard in the captains room and
custody, the maharaiah intending to
get them when he reached Marseilles.
